Reading through a few threads on here recently, I'm quite amazed how many riders do not wear ear plugs at all. Do you not value your hearing?
Yes I do for the last 10 years but unfortunately it was too late for me double tinnitus. Look after your ears youngsters
Throw money at expensive lids thinking they are quiet, a few pence on ear plugs will sort it for the most part.
A lifetime of noisy motorcycles and working on building sites has in the past few years had a great detrimental affect on my hearing.
Always. Drives me insane if I forget them before I set off. Life long engineer on gas turbines conditions me to ear protection.
Need to protect what little hearing I have left and after years of yellow foam jobbies, I now wear custom made soft silicone ones. Oddly whilst reducing a lot of the wind noise, I can still hear the Sena SRL. Andy
Never worn them, never had an issue, but I wont fit a Lithium battery on my older Ducati's as I don't want to burn my ears off
I now always wear quality custom fitted ear plugs. Unfortunately I have to live with Tinitus from years of not wearing ear protection. It's horrible to always live with the high pitch whine and makes following conversations in pubs and other noisy environments really difficult. If you value your still intact hearing it's a simple and effective way to protect it.
Never used to but now all the time . Saying that just nipped out to a cash machine and didn't put any in. Bike sounded overly loud and I was almost embarresed riding back into my close . Sat here in the quite with a nice constant tone in my ears .
